Only A Memory - The Smithereens		Tabbed by Freezex61


As with all the Smithereens songs you will have to tune down one step from 
EADGBe to play along with the song

The intro riff is something like this over an "A" chord

A           G            D          E
My mind is filled with thoughts of you
    A     G       D       E
I think about the days up to
     A       G         D          E
I search the room but you're not there
      A       G       D     E
Your perfume lingers everywhere, but it's

 F      E        F                G        
Only a memory of what our love was going to be
D       E      F             G       
Only a memory broken bits of you and me
D       E      F             G D
Only a memory, Only a memory

Riff x 2

In a world of pain I have no fear
You fade away and disappear
And now I have to learn the game
Where no one wins or takes the blame but it's

Only a memory of what our love was going to be
Only a memory  now that we are history
Only a memory, Only a memory   

Riff x 4

Solo: Verse

Only a memory of what our love was going to be
Only a memory broken bits of you and me
Only a memory, Only a memory

Why should it matter if I cry
I sit around and wonder why
Now I feel much too weak to live
And I've got nothing left to give but it's

Only a memory of what our love was going to be
Only a memory broken bits of you and me
Only a memory, Only a memory

D       E       F       G
Only a memory (Only a memory)
Only a memory (Only a memory)
Only a memory (Only a memory)
Only a memory (Only a memory)
Fade......
